The rainstorm was fierce and continued for nearly a week with no sign of stopping.

At the beginning, most people in the base were afraid of the rain.

It wasn't until the third day that the military sent out mercenary troops to place water collection containers everywhere in the base, and issued a notice that "rainwater is harmless and can be boiled and drank", and then the survivors of the base were immediately exploded. pot.

People rushed to take out all the containers that could be used to hold water at home, occupying all the places in the streets and alleys of the base that could receive water.

"Bam—"

"What are you doing?! This is obviously the entrance to my courtyard!"

"Nonsense! The exterior wall of my house is right here. Why are you talking nonsense with your eyes wide open?!"

"..."

Qiao Yu nestled in Jiang Zhan's arms, listening to the noise outside, and sighed helplessly.

Cheng Sinian on the side stretched out his little finger to pick out his ears, frowned slightly, and said in an impatient tone: "Why is this quarrel happening again? How many batches are these in?"

Luo Zhenzhen's face was filled with despair, "This is the twenty-third chapter."

Ever since the survivors started collecting water a few days ago, they have been quarreling over territory issues from time to time.

The house where Qiao Yu and others live is in the chaotic area of ​​the outer ring. Most of the people living around it are ordinary survivors with no special powers and a few "lone rangers" with enhanced powers.

These people had little resources to begin with, but now that they had finally managed to get water, they naturally refused to give in to anyone and fought for the water collection site every day.

Cheng Sixiang clicked his tongue and looked up at the thugs nestling aside.

The thug was taking a nap with his eyes closed. After noticing Cheng Sinian's gaze, he didn't even open his eyes. With a "swish", he fell down, his head facing the sofa, his butt facing Cheng Sinian, and his whole body was covered with blood. It has rejection written all over it.

"..." Upon seeing this, Cheng Sinian glanced at Jiang Zhan cautiously and found that Jiang Zhan was also concentrating with his eyes closed, so he had to curl his lips and look at Qiao Yu with pleading eyes, "Qiao Yu! Boss! Please!" , change your house! You can hardly open your eyes when you look at the thugs!"

"If this continues, we will all have a nervous breakdown!"

For the first time, Cheng Sinian felt that being "smart with ears and eyes" was not necessarily a good thing.

They are all people who have drank fruit water, and their senses are much more sensitive than normal people. In addition, many of the houses in the outer ring of the base are temporarily built, and the sound insulation effect is not very good.

So since the quarrel started outside, Jiang Zhan and the thugs took turns setting up mental barriers at home to isolate the noise.

However, the mental barrier consumes a huge amount of the user's energy and energy, and it is impossible to use it continuously for a long time.

Moreover, those people outside did not sleep at all in order to collect rainwater, and they would have a quarrel from time to time.

The noise often lasts until midnight.

The thug is a nocturnal animal. After four days of continuous vigil, the leopard lay down on the sofa like a chicken that had been knocked unconscious by medicine, and its tail did not move.

Even an eagle wouldn't dare endure it like this!

Jiang Zhan wasn't much better.

In order to ensure that Qiao Yu could get enough sleep, Jiang Zhan had not slept for a long time.

If Qiao Yu hadn't kept telling him to keep a low profile, he might have gone out and killed them all.

"Then... how about we go out and stay overnight for a few days?" Qiao Yu touched her nose and sounded a little guilty.

She really didn't think twice about this matter. After all, she had never lived in a place like this in her previous life...

Cheng Sinian's eyes lit up at first when he heard this, but then he lost his temper and said, "But where can we go now? There are water tanks everywhere outside..."

Qiao Yu pursed her lips and slowly turned her gaze to Hua Yue, who had been silent next to her.

"In this situation, there may be only one person who can save us..."

Huayue looked at the eyes everyone looked at her and blinked in confusion.

--

"Why are you so anxious to find me back?"

An hour later, Yu Qingchuan didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he hurried back in his lab coat.

He had been staying at the research institute for the past few days, originally planning to wait until the rain stopped before coming back, but he didn't expect that the jade seed that Qiao Yu had buried in his body suddenly started to move.

If it wasn't an emergency, Qiao Yu would definitely not use the jade seeds. He was so frightened that he immediately asked the military to send him back.

"Ah Chuan -" Cheng Sinian was the first to step forward, crawling from the ground to Yu Qingchuan's side, hugged Yu Qingchuan's thigh, and shouted with snot and tears: " There is no way I can survive this day——"

Yu Qingchuan was startled by Cheng Sinian.

Although Cheng Sinian has always been a coquettish person, he often makes mistakes. But this was the first time he saw Cheng Sinian hugging someone's thigh regardless of image.

And... the person being hugged is still him...

"Ah Chuan - please, take us away -" Cheng Sinian raised his head and looked at Yu Qingchuan pitifully, "This house is really unlivable..."

"What's going on?" Yu Qingchuan ignored Cheng Sinian's cry, raised his eyes, and looked at Qiao Yu with some confusion.

"Achuan... I wonder if there are any temporary dormitories over there at the institute... Can we stay here temporarily?"

Qiao Yu touched her nose and twitched her lips in embarrassment. Just as she was about to explain the reason, she heard another quarrel coming from outside——

"Whose basin is this?! Why is it placed in front of my house?!"

"What's the door to your house! Please figure it out, this is clearly the door to my house, okay?!"

"..."

Luo Zhenzhen listened to the quarrel outside the door and weakly stroked her forehead, "...This is the twenty-fourth time."

Okay, no need to explain now.

Qiao Yu sighed and shrugged at Yu Qingchuan.

Yu Qingchuan showed a surprised expression when he saw this, "Then you can pack up and come with me."

"The institute may not have dormitories, but there must be dormitories over there in the Eastern Military Region. I happened to ask someone from the military region to send me back, so let's go directly to Commander Xie and ask."

Qiao Yu raised her eyebrows upon hearing this, her eyes brightening slightly, "That's what I thought!"

Qiao Yu had thought early on that it was absolutely impossible for Yu Qingchuan to come back on his own.

Now the streets of the base are filled with all kinds of water basins and utensils occupying the ground. If you want to go out, you must have people from the military to clear the way.

When the time comes, they can go back with the military.

The Eastern Legion under Commander Xie lost a lot of mercenaries before, and they were recruiting troops everywhere a few days ago, so there must be vacancies in the dormitories now, and it will definitely not be a problem to accommodate them for a few days!

So after five days of torture by the noise, Qiao Yu and others finally followed Yu Qingchuan and escaped from this restless alley.
